JOHN TRAVOLTA'S ICONIC WHITE SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER SUIT LEADS $10 MILLION ENTERTAINMENT AUCTION

LOS ANGELES , CA, UNITED STATES, July 30, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Propstore, one of the world's leading entertainment memorabilia auction houses, will present its Summer Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction from August 26 - 29, 2026, in Los Angeles. The four-day live sale brings together more than 1,700 lots of original film and television props, costumes, production material, autographed treasures, and other entertainment memorabilia, with a combined pre-sale estimate of $10 million. Collectors around the world will be able to participate via live online, absentee, and telephone bidding.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

Leading the sale is Tony Manero's (John Travolta) iconic white suit from Saturday Night Fever (1977) (est. $200,000 - $400,000), worn by Travolta during the film's unforgettable disco competition and featured in many of its best-known promotional images. One of the most recognizable costumes in cinema history, the three-piece suit was later owned by legendary film critic Gene Siskel and bears a handwritten inscription from Travolta.

Another standout is Frank the Rabbit's (James Duval) principal costume from Donnie Darko (2001) (est. $100,000 - $200,000). Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the cult classic's haunting costume is being offered at public auction for the first time after previously being exhibited at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.

Also among the top lots is the screen-matched opening scene mosquito in amber fossil from Jurassic Park (1993) (est. $100,000 - $200,000). Screen-matched to the film's iconic opening sequence, the fossil represents the scientific breakthrough that set the events of Spielberg's groundbreaking blockbuster in motion.

Rounding out the highlights is an original Golden Snitch from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) (est. $25,000 - $50,000). Marking the film's 25th anniversary, the prop is one of the first six Snitches created by renowned prop maker Pierre Bohanna and was used on set by the cast and crew as a lighting and scale reference.

The four-day Live Auction runs from August 26 - 29, 2026, with global online, absentee, and telephone bidding available throughout the four days.

– Day 1 (August 26): Begins at 09:30 AM PDT / 12:30 PM EDT / 05:030 PM BST. Public in-room bidding at The Petersen Automotive Museum, Los Angeles, as well as global online, absentee, and telephone bidding.
